Hi
I have to sell chips to w124 500e e500. I'm riding on it and performs great. very noticeable difference.
A little technical data.

- Removes Top Speed Limiter/Governor
- Great acceleration at low RPM (1000-2000)
- Sharpens the throttle response much better than stock. More punching power in 2000-3000 RPM range and up.
- 10% to 15% more HP and Torque Ft/lb
- Removes the Upshift Delay during drive on cold start
- Smooth Idle

Shipping Worldwide

So mount it in the module Lh. I got to the installation instructions for the chip.

So far, I have a few pieces. I did not think the price of the chip.
You can prompt something?
 
10-15% increase..is that after you dump a few gallons of nitro methane into the tank..:-P

IMHO, unless you are going to change the 2.82 out to something numerically lower the removal of the limiter is moot...you're gearing limited to 160 @ 6K.

Didn't dave play with these chips?

WOT enrichment is nice for you later guys of course:)

jono
 
Write what you want. But my opinion is that the difference is great between serial and modified chip

For this chip to be even entertained by a thought that any potential "gain" can be attained, there has to be undeniable proof that we can see. The chip would have to be tested by other party who has never tried the chip nor has ever met you. The test would have to be taped where both chips are tested and the results are on video. There would have to be at least in cabin video showing the results from 0 to 60 mph and higher speed spurts. Dyno results with both chips would be a nice to have.


Now, if anyone is willing to buy this chip without any test results and give it shot, I would be the first in line to hear your feedback.

So what is the cost for this chip and who makes it?
 
If dyno results show a power gain compared to a stock 1992 LH module, I'd be interested in one.

:watchdrama:

Many have already did back to back dyno tests of all the chips on the market. NONE provided any hp gain. Nor has anyone been able to provide any proof of a hp gain.

I ran one of these generic chips in my car for a while, with dyno tests both before and after. No HP change.

For $50/$75, this is a nice upgrade just for the rev limiter increase, cold start delay removal and top speed limiter removal.
 
Same here, I've never found a chip that made power in a 1992 module.

But, if someone has created a custom chip that does so, great. I'll need to see dyno graphs before forking over $$$ though. Has to be compared to a stock 1992 module, btw.

:seesaw:

Chip comes from this guy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLD3Iz5AerA

The results of the dynamometer car should be in about two weeks
Mercedes Benz is the guy...that does not tell me anything. What is the guy's background? You need to provide a bit more info.

I personally would want to speak with him about his chip and if you get dyno results, your best option is to show two dyno results with the original chip and then with the new chip.

If any of these chips ever worked and as you can see, quite a few have been tested with zilch as far as any true and measured gains, all of us would have them in our cars.

I do hope you understand that no one chip can do what you or the guy who made the chip is claiming, when it comes to hp or torque gains.

Yup, that's why I asked for dyno results compared to a stock 1992 module. If someone has finally figure out how to get a bit more power, great, but I want proof before buying. I've already spent too much time and money at the dyno and dragstrip proving the other common chips on the market don't add power.

:star:
 
Me too. I would jump at any chance to yield 10hp for less then $100 any day of the week. And the proof I would want to see is two modules tested, not just the new chip.

So here we have two different 036 owners from Poland who claim their modified chip is providing that much hp and tourqe, with 10% to 15% more hp and torque on this thread and the "Brabus modified chip and the effect is 380 HP at the dyno and about 560 Nm torque" claim from KamilW124 - who can only manage 13,7-13,8 secs 1/4 ET's with all of that power the car apperently gained.

I took the liberty and ran this by a very good source with an intensive backgroud while working for Brabus North America and the response I got was simple and direct - B.S.
 
Hopefully they will be able to dyno it in a couple of weeks (with custom chip, vs stock 1992 module) and post the results. If there is power to be had, I wants it!! LOL!!

:D
 
It just so happens that you do not have to prove anything. They were the people who bought from me these chips.
my observations of the dynamometer car will put on the forum.


The chips are sold. Thread can be closed.
Post the dyno graphs in the section on the forum High Performance Modifications

Did Renntech make chips for these cars back in the day? If so does anyone still have them. Any German tuners have any options back then?
 
Yep, RENNtech did offer chips years ago, they no longer have them available AFAIK. Last year, someone generously loaned me their supposedly RENNtech original chip for some forensic analysis. I checked out the code, the only difference (compared to stock) was that the top speed limiter was removed! I could not prove that it was definitely an original RENNtech chip, but if so, that is beyond lame.

:wormhole:

Actually, you do have to prove what you and the guy who made the chip is claiming, otherwise you are wasting everyone's time here with B.S.

A dyno run with just the modified chip will show nothing, how do we know what else has been done to the car, whereas swapping out both modules on tape and making runs will at least show one result from the next. Nor would I care for dyno results from you or your car, I want to see someone else's 036 tested before I consider buying into these claims. Since you are not the one who made the chip, you are just a sales rep at best. Give us the designer's info so we can talk to the source. Do you even own an 036?

Good luck in selling placebo affects to the masses.

I do not see the end of what you write to me. You write nonsense. I want to check the performance of the chip is not it? I'm going to dyno a car and do measurements before and after. The module that has a WOT of 1992.
Move on in your imaginary world B. S. Just YOU do not have to prove anything.
That's about it from my side.

Excellent! Please let us know when you have the dyno results. I am very interested to see how it turns out.

:deniro:
 
Steve, very nice tool actually :lolol:

In fact 10% increase in power should be documented somehow cuz nobody here saw such an increase with just a chip . However this claim is more down to earth compare to the claim of 380hp with just a brabus chip on 5.0 . While brabus 6.0 + chip and all other additional engine modification give just a 400+ hp

can we get a known good old Renntech chip, my buddy has a EPROM reader. I can take a look at it and see what's been done. I don't really know anything about Renntech but my friend Nigel worked for them back in the day and I know that did really nice stuff 15 years ago.
 
Closed.

Please post the dyno results when they are available!
